Via the 1825 Potato Riots and lazy beds for seed potatoes on Peel Hill to restore Ireland's blighted stock after the 1840s we arrive at Archibald Cregeen. In his dictionary he refers to 18th November as Laa'l Spitlhin Geuree. We explore who or what was Spitlhin. 

Rather than one story in Manx threaded through the programme, we have eight pieces of flash fiction.

SKEEAL - Mannin veg veen
